Using iSync 5.0.7 (or 8) with Tiger

[glassman]

Hello forum

I have a few questions

1. If I'm a Mac OS Tiger user and the latest Zimbra products for Mac use CalDav, will I be able to use the latest Zimbra Mac related products?

2. How do I get rid of the Conflict Resolver? I tell it to resolve similar conflicts and sync now, but it keeps popping up.

3. Why if I delete a calendar entry in iCal does it pop back up and not delete on both ends?

4. Is there a way to set Apple Mail to have an Accept "button"?

Thanks

1. If you use the current (5.0.7 and later) connector with Tiger, it will revert to using Sync Services and not allow the CalDAV option.

2. I used to get it predictable by making sure that both Zimbra has the contacts and calendars perfect, then use the connector to overwrite the Mac with the Zimbra server-side contents. If you also have Entourage in the mix, you will have conflicts pop-up--disable that if you can.

3. This has not been a problem for me with Tiger or Leopard in a long time-- see my solution for number 1 for settling that down.

4. In getting an event in Mail as an ics file you can open in iCal and accept it there, though I think the Zimbra Web Client is better for this kind of thing.


Good luck,
